Déjà Vu
And here we go again, another inevitable loss to this unknown mysterious cunning person. I have played this game a million times yet I am still unfamiliar with the rules. Perhaps it's because the rules change every time I play. The game is beautiful, something out of this world—an extraterrestrial. It's laced with red Rose's and lavenders in the beginning and I almost feel like a sailor on a serene sea but with time all the skills I have at playing seem to disappear and I am left defenseless. I always get stuck at at the same place because of a similar reason, I've lost more times that I have ever won, tell me this then, how can I be optimistic when I live in a pessimistic world? I've read this book before, I know the ending but the heartbreak doubles every time I read it. It's painful that my favourite character is the ill fated one however what truly tores my heart is that the book ends. We run out of pages and the ink slowly disappears. It's hard to accept but everything ends with time. It's fate's twisted way of showing us that he still got the upper hand.

Forgive Me
I wasn't aware that my love was a chain. I never noticed that you had become my prisoner. I must've pushed you behind the bars of care and clinginess unwittingly, please forgive me. I know that you hated these bars, but believe me I was high when I caged you. The slight chance that you might love me sent me to heaven and I sang love songs with the angels. The kisses you gave me after telling me nobody would love me except you got me higher that the empire state, with this infatuation I would've rode to space and came back resistant to the force of gravity.
